July 24, 2012– INDIA – Police shot at a roving mob in India’s northeastern state of Assam on Tuesday as security forces struggled to contain ethnic fighting that has killed 22 people and left remote hamlets in flames, forcing tens of thousands from their homes. Rioting between Bodo tribespeople and Muslim settlers has raged for days. Several people suffered bullet wounds and others were injured in a stampede when police fired to disperse a gang of 400 on Tuesday morning, a senior police official said. Soldiers and federal paramilitary troops patrolled Bodo tribe-dominated Kokrajhar town and outlying areas on armored vehicles mounted with machine guns. Locals said more reinforcements were needed to stop the violence that spread to rural areas and neighboring districts overnight, with more hamlets along river banks and in the jungle burned by rival mobs. Some 500 villages have been destroyed. “The security forces were silent spectators when village after village was burnt down,” veteran local politician Urkhao Gwra Brahma told Reuters. “This morning I thought the situation would become normal, but I was wrong. Violence again started. It is really out of control.” Ringed by China, Myanmar, Bangladesh and Bhutan, India’s northeast is home to more than 200 ethnic and tribal groups and has been racked by separatist revolts since India’s independence from Britain in 1947. In recent years, Hindu and Christian tribes have vented strong anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim sentiment against Bangladeshi settlers. The latest violence was sparked on Friday night when unidentified men killed four youths in the isolated Kokrajhar district, police and district officials said. In retaliation, armed Bodos attacked Muslims, suspecting them of being behind the killings. Hundreds of men armed with spears, clubs and rocks attacked an express train passing through Kokrajhar on Tuesday, injuring several passengers. Hagrama Mohilary, the leader of the tribal council governing the region, warned that former separatist rebels had joined the violence to protect Bodo villages. He called for the rebels, who are officially observing a ceasefire, to lay down their arms. Bodo tribes shot at Muslim villages close to the border with Bhutan on Monday night, a senior police officer who asked not to be named told Reuters. He said no casualties had been reported. Assam’s chief minister, Tarun Gogoi, told TV network CNN-IBN that he hoped the situation would be under control within two days. He said some 30,000 villagers have fled their homes and taken shelter in relief camps, but local officials said the numbers were at least twice that. –Reuters

Wave of sectarian violence explodes in Iraq:A series of roadside bombings, exploding cars and gun battles have killed at least 115 people and injured more than 200 across Iraq in the deadliest day of violence in more than two years. The coordinated attacks on Monday come after al Qaeda’s leader in Iraq, Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, warned the militant network was returning to strongholds from which it was driven before US troops left the country in December. “The majority of the Sunnis in Iraq support al Qaeda and are waiting for its return,” he said in a statement last week. The bombings and shootings all took place within a few hours of each other, shattering a two-week lull in violence in the run-up to the Muslim holy fasting month of Ramadan, which started in Iraq on Saturday. Sectarian violence peaked in Iraq in 2006-2007, but deadly attacks have persisted while political tensions among Iraq’s main Shi’ite, Sunni and Kurdish factions have mounted since the American military withdrawal. No group has claimed responsibility for the latest wave of assaults, but a senior Iraqi security official blamed the local wing of al Qaeda, made up of Sunni Muslim militants hostile to the Shi’ite-led government. “Recent attacks are a clear message that al Qaeda in Iraq is determined to spark a bloody sectarian war,” the official said, asking not to be named. “With what’s going on in Syria, these attacks should be taken seriously as a potential threat to our country. Al Qaeda is trying to push Iraq to the verge of Shi’ite-Sunni war,’ he said. “They want things to be as bad as in Syria,” he added. –Sky News

I sure do hope not. Everybody seems on edge. I read on another site that The US Marine Corps
has created several battalions for law enforcement duties to provide assistance as needed world wide.
Don’t send them no where, probably going to need them here….soon
That is my opinion………

So all our work in Iraq was for nothing? How many billions did we spend to remove Hussian from power, only to put Al Qaeda in a position to become a ruling party there. Wow, this is ironic don’t ya think?

I have been watching the downward sprial of the world for months now. I prepare for the worst and hope for the best, that is about all we can do right now..God Bless..

Apparentley, the carnage in irag caused by the usa founded al quaeda, along with the turks bombing the kurds, the war n syria are all interconnected by usa n saudi arabia. To get assad to step down, as posted earlier on this site.

I agree with you but many people are so blind to the truth behind the true “terrorists” of 9-11. The Iraq-Afghanistan wars had nothing to do with fighting for our freedom, they were all about slowly taking away our freedoms in our own country in the name of “patriot acts”, “homeland security” and of late,by-passing the constitution, allowing the UN to slowly take away our rights under “international law”. The NWO is finally coming together. I watched Hal Lindsay last night and he revealed how the global elites have been setting up the parameters for the NWO since 1913 when the Federal Reserve was established. 100 yrs of careful plotting of crisis’ and taking advantage of them, not letting “a good crisis to go to waste”. A global currency is around the corner too. Which domino will fall first to start the economic unraveling? Eurozone or USA?? I haven’t even touched on the famine, drought, undrinkable water, and plagues on the horizon. At least there is a good ending to the coming horror and mayhem….our Blessed Savior Lord Jesus…come quickly!!

In Matthew 24 it does say that nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. The greek word for nation is “Ethnos” more properly translated as ethnic will rise against ethinic and country against country. It is part of the signs of the times for sure. Times are getting rough for sure. The paper rejected my last article and gave me a bunch of excuses as to why I could not be published, even though I gave all of my sources. So I stayed up late working on a blog last night. I was browsing my feeds and came across this and was reminded of that ethnos wording and verse.

THE BIBLE STATES ”WOE TO THE INHABITENTS OF THE EARTH AND THE SEA ,FOR THE DEVIL IS COME DOWN UNTO YOU,HAVING GREAT WRATH,BECAUSE HE KNOWETH THAT HE HAD BUT A SHORT TIME ” We had better start putting God back in this country and our lives soon because this is comming to America if we don’t .

all i can do is be prepared! if the fat lady picks up her microphone then at least i’ll be somewhat prepared. i do belive something big and most likely nasty is heading our way. i can only hope that the human race will survive, and i think we will, we are like cochroaches in a way; because we are a stubborn and resilient people

Ethnos vs. ethnos… That really describes it all too well. Throughout the Middle East, Africa, Asia – there is not a continent on earth that is not being torn apart by violence. Europe and North America are the closest thing we have to non-violent places but even they are on that downward spiral as evidenced by the drug violence in Mexico and the fairly recent violence in the former Yugoslavia. Here in America we are still getting closer to such violence as shown by the unrest in Florida and California, both of which were ethnic in nature. As the prophecies all reveal, this will continue to spiral downward. It’s tragic, but our world is coming apart and only the return of Christ will stop it.

No doubt we are entering dangerous times. Satan and his followers are stirring all types of issues all around the globe. Isolating one’s self won’t solve the problem; what will solve the problem is a spiritual revival in the USA and getting back to God’s Word.

I think that the N.W.O. people feed these types of areas of ethinic diversity with agitation through however they do it. It’s their MO. They could be feeding them with intelligent understanding and brotherly love, but this is how they begin to destabilize regions.

Extreme weather, severe drought, the mass shooting in Denver, the Syrian gov’t threatening to use chemical …pretty challenging situations. So let’s remember that it’s important not to be encumbered by fear and drama. Compassion helps to increase unity and can lessen the impact of the global anxiety, which is important if we are to make a transition.
